Chapter 479 Impeachment
Chapter 479 Impeachment
"Zhang Deli, what do you think Lao Wu thinks?"
Qin Zhi turned his gaze to Zhang Deli, who was directing the palace servants to clean up the broken pieces of the porcelain cup and the splashed tea stains that he had smashed on the ground.
The situation in Annan was in a mess, but Qin Zhi was not angry.
However, the memorials impeaching several princes had been urgently delivered to his desk from Annan, eight hundred miles away, and he could not remain silent.
We still need to have the right emotions and attitude.
"Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince is not a reckless person. He has caused chaos in Annan. He must have his own reasons. Please calm down, Your Majesty."
He doesn't know what he is thinking, but as long as he doesn't raise the flag of rebellion, there will be no problem.
Zhang Deli waved his hand to let the palace servants leave, and then retreated to the imperial desk, behind Qin Zhi.
Under the black jade paperweight on the desk was Meng Xingye's memorial, with the red ink marks still wet.
He glanced at the words on the memorial: "It damages the reputation of the Heavenly Dynasty's benevolence and virtue", and his voice became three times softer.
"I remember last year's spring hunt. In order to capture Huang Hu and his family of three, the Fifth Prince deliberately set fire to half of the pine forest and won the first prize."
Meng Xingye's reasons for impeaching the Fifth Prince were not actually strong, but rather slightly soft, as if he was intending to protect the Fifth, Seventh and Eighth Princes, which surprised Zhang Deli.

Jiaofang Hall.
"Meet the Concubine Hui."
Xiaoji took Meng Xinghe, who came to pay homage to the queen, into the palace.
"Aunt Xiaoji, do you like the gift I sent someone to give you the other day? If my gift doesn't touch Aunt Xiaoji's heart, please come to me to make it up."
"What Madam Huifei said makes me feel itchy. If I say I am not satisfied, won't I get another generous gift?"
Meng Xinghe nodded happily when he heard this, "Aunt Xiaoji is about to get married, so I'll let you take advantage of her for once, what's wrong with that?"
Meng Xinghe was very surprised that Aunt Huaixu actually bypassed Xiaoji, one of the Queen's right-hand men, and took away Madam Rongqin's imperial edict.
Upon inquiring, I found out that Xiao Ji would not take part in the assessment to leave the palace, but would marry out from the Queen's family, the Shen Mansion, at the age of thirty-five or thirty-six, as the Queen's adopted sister, and would become a marquis's wife.
Meng Xinghe had mixed feelings about the choices made by the Queen and Xiaoji and was unable to comment.
But she was happy for Huai Xu who got a bargain.
"I'm not kidding you. I really like Concubine Hui's gift."
Shen Ningyue was sitting in the main seat with a big belly. The palace affairs were piled up on the desk. She flipped through them one by one and stamped them with the phoenix seal with her own hands.
"Sister Xinghe is here." Shen Ningyue raised her eyes to look at her without stopping the stamping action with her hand.
"Hurry up and take a seat. I am almost done with my work."
"May your Majesty live long and healthy. I was bored in the Suzaku Palace, so I came out for a walk. I walked to the Pepper Room. Your Majesty, you don't have to entertain me. I will just sit here and have some tea and then go back."
Meng Xinghe took the teacup handed to him by the palace servant, blew on it gently, took a sip, and finding that it was not very hot, he drank it in one gulp.
"Please, young lady, pour me another glass."
Shen Ningyue raised her head pretending to be helpless and said softly, "It seems that Sister Xinghe is really thirsty."
"That's right!"
Shen Ningyue closed the letter in her hand and looked at Meng Xinghe with a smile, "Okay, I will come and talk with Sister Xinghe to kill some time."
Meng Xinghe smiled lightly and said, "It is you who is accompanying the Queen."
"All up to you. By the way, I heard from the Princess of Qi that your mother's brother impeached the three princes who were on the southern tour?"
One does not go to the Sanbao Palace for no reason. Given Concubine Hui's lazy personality, who wishes she could lie down forever, why would she come to the Pepper Palace?
